A few of the vendors have a static cling film for about $25.00 that cuts down on heat and is pre-cut to fit correctly on the inside of the t-top....good luck!

You could have a special window film installed to block heat. If the vendors who install tint in cars can't help, contact someone local who does commercial buildings or homes. They use film like this:

I got the black sun liner from Willcox for $32.00 plus a 10% forum discount, It came from Corvette Central, peal and stick cling style dot matrix. Been on 3 weeks now with no problems. The wife says they made a big difference and I agree.
